We have #JamesBond villains ( #Musk)
We have #InvasionoftheBodySnatchers zombification ( #MAGA)
Etc, etc.
And now we have #Wargames:
" #AI s can’t stop recommending #nuclear strikes in #war game #simulations
Leading AIs from #OpenAI, #Anthropic and #Google opted to use #nuclearWeapons in simulated war games in 95 per cent of cases"

I do regularly say "I don't want to live in this world any more".
Between utter failure to make progress on stopping global warming, to the rich pushing fascism on the rest of us, so they can avoid the consequences of global warming, it feels like everything is going to keep getting worse for hundreds of years.

@benroyce exactly why tech isn't fun at all any more to me. Really peaked in 2012.
Linux adoption is about the only new thing to be excited about tech wise.

@benroyce OfCorse not in reality but as a kid loved it to play games like missle command on my atari2600

my attitude is to go down fighting
if you're surrounded by 20 goons, you can feel hopeless
or you can go out swinging with a stupid grin on your face
that's my approach
"rage rage against the dying of the light" and all that
anyone who just curls up in a ball and accepts defeat?
this is not the real left
all there is, and ever was, in this world, is the good fight
you fight, you may lose
you may also win
if you give up you will lose
there are no better terms in this world

@benroyce I'm feeling more like a matrix type of approach. AI needs resources, and 'humans are batteries'

@benroyce When I worked at Linux Networx, the first customer they gave me all to my lonesome was a USAF facility in Idaho Falls. And this machine was running classified scenarios concerning radar (and that's all I'm going to say about that) but this cluster was so sad. It was a used cluster, not even an LNXI machine, just the head-node was, with the nodes shoved in a rack with the wrong sized screws. And they said, there is no funding for non-nuclear shit to buy a new cluster.

it's true though
i can't stand fucking whiners "on the left" talking defeatism. or so fucking stupid they don't understand that that is what not voting is
even if they are invested in some other attempt to defeat #fascism
that other track will have tactical thinkers going "oh, but also #vote, that's good vandalism/ sabotage"
all these fucking whiny entitled lazy assholes "on the left" are nothing but willingly and meekly submitting to fascism if THEY DON'T FUCKING VOTE

I will vote if am allowed to, and I will hope that the results of the vote are accurate and true.
I don't expect either to be the case going forward, but I will vote and hope for as long as I can.
And when they come to drag you off to the labor camps, I will do everything I can to prevent it.
And when they come to take me to the gas chambers, I will not go quietly.
In the meantime, my attic is available for anyone that needs to hide out and keep a diary.
If you're cold, I'll try and find you a blanket. If you're hungry, I'll try and get you something to eat. And if I see you stealing bread and blankets:
no the fuck I didn't.

bless you
no one expects magical purity of vision
everyone sane expects participation
and if you participate with a heavy heart, that you participated is all that matters

@saltywizard
What kind of law restricts you from voting?
